Sunset and the rain has stopped
The shadow of candles stroke aslant their walls
The mail dropped the order and I started to obey
Lost my head to the gun and my heart to the hate
Innocence in their burning eyes
So safe in the knowledge of no chance at all
All my dreams turned grey that day
How very young the faces were...
I should have known, I could have stopped
This mistake in the game of thrones
It tears me down, beyond belief
While all my dreams turned grey that day
How very young the faces were
Where all the dead burned bodies lay
I was thirty and convinced when I walked through that lane
With the dawn of my doom only one step away
Blackest smoke arose from the hills
The heartless thrones misspent all our souls
All my dreams turned grey that day
How very young the faces were
I should have known, I could have stopped
This mistake in the game of thrones
It tears me down, beyond belief
While all my dreams turned grey that day
How very young the faces were
Where all the dead burned bodies lay
Deep in your soul we are all still alive
Feeding your heart with anger and pain
With my own hands
What have I done?
It tears me apart
A ruefully heart
Deep in the night we will come to your bed
Burning bodies are calling your name
I want to forget
The anger of guns
The monster I've been
An indescribable sin
Silence and grace are afar of your days
Will you take the step into your fate?
Take it away
My life away
I will atone
All my dreams turned grey that day
How very young the faces were...
I should have known, I could have stopped
This mistake in the game of thrones
It tears me down, beyond belief
While all my dreams turned grey that day
How very young the faces were
Where all the dead burned bodies lay
